In the early 80s, Braulio moved to Greeley. Braulio and his companion, Candy, enjoyed outdoor activities along with raising a small herd of cattle along with other animals that would wander onto the land. Braulio’s favorite things in his life involved family and friends. Foremost, he loved to tell stories and appreciated everyone who would listen, especially Tonya who often drove him to medical appointments and cared for him.

He was born Jan. 13, 1933, to Ivan and Mable (Jamison) Connell in Quinter, Kan. He graduated from Boulder High School in 1951 and went on to attend Western College of Auctioneering from which he graduated in 1967. He married Donna Akins at Lake Tahoe on Aug. 20, 1975. He was a man of many talents and was self-employed at many different businesses, including a pinball business, cattle business and a machinery business. Bob owned and operated SeaTac Flea Market and auction from 1967-1969 and then started Connell’s Antique Auction in late 1969 in Federal Way, Wash. In 1975, Bob moved back to Kersey and continued Connell’s Antique Auction in Ault until the late 1980s.

He enjoyed working with stained glass, fishing, his 1969 Harley Electra Glide and collecting farm toys. He had his pilot’s license and enjoyed flying. Bob had a great sense of humor and was a wonderful storyteller. Boy, could he tell a story!

He is survived by his wife, Donna Connell of Eaton; sons, Kenneth (Vicky) Connell of Fort Collins, and Kendall (Ruth) Merritt of Purcelville, Va.; brother, Edwin Connell; three grandchildren, Jason and Andy Connell and Riley Merritt; and five great-grandchildren, Logan, Lucy, Brooke, Kayla, and Jacob Connell.
